Organization and Business Operations [Abstract] |
ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS | NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS Plum Acquisition Corp. I (the “Company” or “Plum”) was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on January 11, 2021. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “Business Combination”). The Company will not be limited to a particular industry or geographic region in its identification and acquisition of a target company. The Company is an emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with emerging growth companies. As previously reported, on November 27, 2023 The Company executed a Business Combination Agreement with Veea Inc. The Company and Veea are working toward closing their Business Combination. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from January 11, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 2023 relates to the Company’s formation and the initial public offering, which is described below, and subsequent to the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a business combination. The Company believes it will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on investments in the Company’s Trust account and will recognize changes in the fair value of the warrant liabilities as other income (expense). The Company’s Sponsor is Plum Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”). The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on March 15, 2021 (the “Effective Date”). On March 18, 2021, the Company consummated the initial public offering (the “Public Offering” or “IPO”) of 30,000,000 units (the “Units), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $300,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3. Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 6,000,000 warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $1.50 per Private Placement Warrant, which is discussed in Note 4. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, generating gross proceeds of $9,000,000, which is described in Note 4. The Company granted the underwriter a 45-day option from March 18, 2021 to purchase up to an additional 4,500,000 Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions. The underwriter partially exercised the over-allotment option on April 14, 2021 and purchased 1,921,634 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Simultaneously with the issuance and sale of the Units on April 14, 2021, the Company consummated the private placement with the Sponsor for an aggregate of 256,218 warrants to purchase Class A Ordinary Shares for $1.50 per warrant generating total proceeds of $384,327. On April 14, 2021, $19,216,340, net of the underwriter discount, was deposited in the Company’s Trust account. A total of $19,216,340 was placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Transaction costs of the IPO and the exercise of the over-allotment option amounted to $18,336,269 consisting of $6,384,327 of underwriting discount, $11,172,572 of deferred underwriting discount, and $779,370 of other offering costs. Of the transaction costs, $538,777 is included in transaction costs on consolidated the statements of operations and $17,797,492 is included in consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ deficit. Following the closing of the Public Offering on March 18, 2021 and the partial exercise of the underwriter’s over-allotment option, $319,216,340 (approximately $10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Public Offering, including the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, was deposited in a trust account (“Trust Account”) located in the United States at Goldman Sachs, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company acting as trustee, and was invested in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act which invests only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will not be released from the Trust Account (1) to the Company, until the completion of our initial Business Combination, or (2) to the Public Shareholders, until the earliest of (i) the completion of the initial Business Combination, and then only in connection with those Class A ordinary shares that such shareholders properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of its Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within the combination period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares, and (iii) the redemption of the public shares if the Company has not consummated its Business Combination within the Combination Period, subject to applicable law. Public Shareholders who redeem their Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote described in clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall not be entitled to funds from the Trust Account upon the subsequent completion of an initial Business Combination or liquidation if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period, with respect to such Class A ordinary shares so redeemed. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of the Company’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of the Public Shareholders (as defined below). The Company will provide shareholders (the “Public Shareholders”) of its Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001, sold in the IPO (the “Public Shares”), with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) without a shareholder vote by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of the initial Business Combination at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay the Company’s taxes, if any, divided by the number of then-outstanding Public Shares, subject to certain limitations. The amount in the Trust Account is initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share. These Public Shares have been classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In such case, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company receives the approval of an ordinary resolution. The Company will have until June 18, 2024, to complete an initial Business Combination. However, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii), to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. Extraordinary General Meeting and Redemption of Shares On March 15, 2023, Plum held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its Shareholders (1) to amend Plum’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “Articles”) to extend the date (the “Termination Date”) by which Plum has to consummate a business combination (the “Articles Extension”) from March 18, 2023 (the “Original Termination Date”) to June 18, 2023 (the “Articles Extension Date”) and to allow Plum, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to nine times by an additional one month each time after the Articles Extension Date, by resolution of Plum’s board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until March 18, 2024, or a total of up to twelve months after the Articles Extension Date, unless the closing of Plum’s initial business combination shall have occurred prior to such date (the “Extension Amendment Proposal”) and (2) to amend the Articles to eliminate from the Articles the limitation that Plum may not redeem Class A ordinary shares to the extent that such redemption would result in Plum having net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a 51-1(g)(1)of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of less than $5,000,001 (the “Redemption Limitation”) in order to allow Plum to redeem Public Shares irrespective of whether such redemption would exceed the Redemption Limitation (the “Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal”). The shareholders of Plum approved the Extension Amendment Proposal and the Redemption Limitation Amendment Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting and on March 15, 2023, Plum filed the amendment to the Articles with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands. In connection with the vote to approve the Extension Amendment Proposal, the holders of 26,693,416 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a Redemption price of $10.23 per share, for an aggregate Redemption amount of $273,112,312. The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of the Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if the Company does not complete our initial Business Combination within the Combination Period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Class A ordinary shares, (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares they hold if the Company fails to consummate an initial Business Combination within the Combination Period (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within the prescribed time frame) and (iv) vote their Founder Shares and public shares in favor of our initial Business Combination. On September 13, 2023, Plum held an Extraordinary General Meeting of its Shareholders (“September Shareholder Meeting”) (1) to amend the Articles to extend Articles Extension Termination Date from the Articles Extension Date to December 18, 2023 (the “Second Articles Extension Date”) and to allow the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to six times by an additional one month each time after the Second Articles Extension Date, by resolution of the Company’s board of directors if requested by the Sponsor, and upon five days’ advance notice prior to the applicable Termination Date, until June 18, 2024, or a total of up to nine months after the Termination Date, unless the closing of the Company’s initial business combination shall have occurred prior to such date (the “Second Extension Amendment Proposal”) and (2) to authorize a reduction in the funds held in the Trust Account to an amount equal to $20,000,000.00 (the “Trust Reduction”), which amount will be used to compulsorily redeem up to 3,228,218 Public Shares at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the redemption date, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then-outstanding public shares (“Trust Reduction Proposal”). The shareholders of the Company approved the Second Extension Amendment Proposal and the Trust Reduction Proposal at the Shareholder Meeting and on September 13, 2023, the Company filed the amendment to the Articles with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands. In connection with the vote to approve the Second Extension Amendment Proposal, (i) the Sponsor, as the sole holder of Class B Ordinary Shares, voluntarily elected to convert all Class B Ordinary Shares to Class A Ordinary Shares on a one-for-one basis in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Class B Conversion”) and (ii) the holders of 1,972,625 Class A ordinary shares properly exercised their right to redeem their shares for cash at a redemption price of $10.72 per share, for an aggregate redemption amount of $21,142,260.78 (the “Redemption”). Upon completion of the Class B Conversion and the Redemption, 7,980,409 shares of Class A common stock, excluding 3,255,593 shares of Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption, and no shares of Class B common stock remain issued and outstanding. As approved by its stockholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting (the “EGM”), the Company filed an Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “A&R Charter”) on October 25, 2023, which (i) extended the date by which the Company has to consummate a business combination to December 18, 2023 and (ii) allowed the Company, without another shareholder vote, to elect to extend the Termination Date (as defined in the Proxy Statement) to consummate a business combination on a monthly basis for up to six times by an additional one month each time after December 18, 2023 (or such shorter period as necessary to comply with applicable listing requirements), by resolution of the Company’s board of directors, if requested by Plum Partners, LLC, and upon five days advance notice prior to the applicable termination date, until June 18, 2024, or a total of up to nine months after September 18, 2023, unless the closing of a business combination shall have occurred prior thereto. An aggregate of 1,972,625 Class A ordinary shares of the Company were tendered for redemption in connection with the shareholders’ vote at the Extraordinary General Meeting. Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Going Concern The Company’s liquidity needs up to March 18, 2021 had been satisfied through a capital contribution from the Sponsor of $25,000 (see Note 5) for the Founder Shares. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors, and third parties have committed to provide the Company Working Capital Loans (see Note 5). As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had $1,000,000 outstanding under Working Capital Loans. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $94,703 in its operating bank account and a working capital deficit $7,590,471. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASC 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements — Going Concern”, management has determined that the Company has and will continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon consummation of our initial Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, we would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of our initial Business Combination. If we are unable to complete our initial Business Combination because we do not have sufficient funds available to us, we will be forced to cease operations and liquidate the Trust Accounts. In addition, following our initial Business Combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, we may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet our obligations. Further, management has determined that if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination by June 18, 2024 (the “Combination Period”), then the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of liquidating. The date for mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution as well as the Company’s working capital deficit raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after the Combination Period. The Company intends to complete a Business Combination before the mandatory liquidation date.
